{"id":"CVE-2026-98128","summary":"scsi: mpi3mr: Fix target device refcount leak in mpi3mr_sas_port_add()","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: mpi3mr: Fix target device refcount leak in mpi3mr_sas_port_add()\n\nmpi3mr_get_tgtdev_by_addr() increments the target device kref when it\nreturns a device. If a subsequent error triggers a goto out_fail after\nthe tgtdev reference is acquired, the reference is never released\nbecause the out_fail path does not call mpi3mr_tgtdev_put(). This\nprevents the target device structure from ever being freed.\n\nAdd a tgtdev put in the out_fail path, guarded by a NULL check since\ntgtdev is only acquired for SAS_END_DEVICE types and the same cleanup\npath is shared by earlier error cases where tgtdev is still NULL.","modified":"2026-10-09T17:27:03.930425520Z","published":"2026-09-25T10:36:09.014Z","related":["openSUSE-SU-2026:12074-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/98xxx/CVE-2026-98128.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/040146f81d099006a354b0caacc7f01ca00f257e"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/06a7073b33b8f5cb0ee71e07dc669efffb1c7d58"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1ccbe8c42009706af79e6629c70d42fc929aef2b"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/419d129f970aaa6567dbac366b0c93784bf9ec97"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/58e3d2fbc8c914ed3dce2f7d915b3c4f4a3c76fb"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/60a9aaac07f6470b252c4de40e7d8a6e25004093"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/98xxx/CVE-2026-98128.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-98128"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"e22bae30667a7e74ed057e00fb6e8c79e0738de3"},{"fixed":"60a9aaac07f6470b252c4de40e7d8a6e25004093"},{"fixed":"58e3d2fbc8c914ed3dce2f7d915b3c4f4a3c76fb"},{"fixed":"040146f81d099006a354b0caacc7f01ca00f257e"},{"fixed":"06a7073b33b8f5cb0ee71e07dc669efffb1c7d58"},{"fixed":"1ccbe8c42009706af79e6629c70d42fc929aef2b"},{"fixed":"419d129f970aaa6567dbac366b0c93784bf9ec97"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-98128.json"}},{"package":{"name":"Kernel","ecosystem":"Linux"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.1.0"},{"fixed":"6.1.189"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.2.0"},{"fixed":"6.6.158"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.7.0"},{"fixed":"6.12.111"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.13.0"},{"fixed":"6.18.53"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.19.0"},{"fixed":"7.2.7"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-98128.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
